Absolute newbie question

[Randall Hopper]

Philip Tellis:
 |Where are the man pages for python?  I am new to python, and would like to
 |look through the man pages before I start.  Someone please help.

Fredrik pointed you to the man page, but what you may want is the
full library and language documentation.  Bookmark this URL:

    http://www.python.org/doc/

Tutorial is where to start.  Library Reference has all the goodies you can
import and use.
